New Orleans is a city defined by its unique and colorful history. It's
for that reason that most tend to view the place as something of a musical
museum while ignoring the town's vibrant and innovative new music. In
New Orleans, the hip-hop at the heart of today's culture emerged from
an energetic, highly eroticized and occasionally gender-bending music called “bounce”.
And the truth is, all the town's seemingly disparate styles – jazz,
brass bands and funk as well as the newer “bounce” influenced hip
hop, are all intrinsically linked. There is a particular inclusiveness about
the place which connects both its people and their music. And now, for the
first time ever, all these sounds have been combined on one undeniably original
record. With YA-KA-MAY, long time NOLA residents, GALACTIC have made an album
that reflects the city as they see it - blending all the town's distinctive
sounds in a way no band has before.
YA-KA-MAY is set to be released Feb 9, 2010 on Anti Records. The album features
established legends such as the Rebirth Brass Band, Irma Thomas, Big Chief
Bo Dollis, Allen Toussaint and Walter “Wolfman” Washington with
younger artists like Trombone Shorty and Corey Henry, John Boutté, Josh
Cohen and Scully, and Glen David Andrews, as well as groundbreaking new “Bounce” artists
like Cheeky Blakk, Big Freedia, Katey Red, and Sissy Nobby. The end result
is New Orleans like it's truly meant to be heard, and pure GALACTIC.

Winter Solstice is the longest night of the year. It is the time of year to go deep within to renew and regenerate your energy. It is a time of rebirth, a time to plant seeds for the future and to set intentions for the next cycle as we return to light.
As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence actually liberates others.
Wishing you positive energy to move into the light.
